    TKO on cuts or medical stoppage. Pacquiao's face will look like a horror film when it's over. Trust me. Pacquiao is wide open and Mayweather will pick him apart with crisp counter punching. Pacquiao will pay every time he opens up from about the 3rd round on.

    Where's your vote? Or did I somehow miss your name in the groupings of those who've voted thus far?

    Incidentally, I think the early poll results here SHOULD be somewhat reflective of what the actual fight odds are (not necessarily official numbers from the odds-makers, but the ratios that I imagine the books will close on ultimately, and where they ought be - something like 53-45-2, give or take)

    Floyd takes it. 70/30% that it is a decision/TKO. Pac will move in and out and try to land combos. In round 1 Pac's foot speed will bother Mayweather a little
    but Mayweather will have his timing down by the end of round 1 and will begin to catch him coming in.

    Floyd will nearly completely take away Pac's left hand. He will toy with him rounds 2-5 to get Pac to waste his energy. Floyd will win most of these rounds.

    Beginning in round 3 or 4 Floyd will be dominating with clean right hands and left hooks. Floyd will time him coming in and will know everything Pac is going to do before he does it. Sometime between rounds 8-10 Floyd will begin to walk Pacquiao down. If Pac is tired enough or keeps coming forward into right hands Floyd MAY go for the KO. Pac will be way too easy for Floyd to hit and Pac won't be able to find Floyd with anything meaningful. Pacquiao wins 3 rounds max. 1 or 2 in the first 4 and possibly one late. The rounds Pac wins are close. Mayweather wins 8 or 9 CLEAR rounds and takes the UD.

    I think Pacman will push Mayweather like never before, and none of have seen Mayweathers true potential as he has been fighting easy fighters.

    So I do think Mayweather has something special in him that we haven't seen.

    I think for Pacman to win he has to throw over 1,000 punches in this fight, and just throw, and throw, and forget about hitting him in the face, and just throw.

    If he does that and I think he can.... he might pull it off..... IDK...

    What I do know is that Mayweather cannot just throw 30 to 40 punches per round in this one, he has to go for it, and we know Mayweather will.

    It should be a good fight.

    Floyd wins a non competetive fight. Big chance he knocks manny out late

    If you ask me, on May 2nd 2015, In my honest deep felt opinion, I seriously think that the fight will end with a win, lose or draw
